Stereo Jack Quirks

Hi,
I noticed that pushing the stereo jack in until there isn't a visible
connector gap doesn't output any sound at all. Playing with alsamixer
won't help as well. I need to pull the connector a few mm back
(typically 2-3mm) to get it to work on both speakers. Do other device
owners have this problem?
